Hey everyone! I'm a total newbie trying to get my Jellyfin server up and running using Techhut's tutorials. I've successfully SSH'd into my Ubuntu terminal, but now I'm facing a bit of confusion. I can access Jellyfin with the URL [0.0.0.0]:8096 in my browser, but I'm wondering how to do the same for other programs I install. For instance, I downloaded Parabolic (known as tube-converter on Ubuntu) and want to access it through [0.0.0.0]:8083. Since I'm still learning the ropes, I'd appreciate it if you could explain this like I'm five. Thanks a bunch!

I agree with TechieTom22. I had a similar situation with applications on Linux. Since Parabolic isn't a web app, accessing it via a browser won't work like Jellyfin does. You can either use it directly on your machine or consider remote desktop options like VNC. If you're dead set on using it via a browser, the options like noVNC or Guacamole are your best bet, but they can be a bit complicated to set up. Just take it slow and follow some guides, and you'll get it!
Jellyfin is built as a web app, which is why you can access it through your browser. Now, regarding Parabolic, it looks like it’s not a web application but rather a desktop app, so that's why you can't access it the same way. If you want to use it on a different machine, you might want to check out VNC, which lets you control your desktop remotely. But if you really want to see it in a web browser, you could look into tools like noVNC or Guacamole to set that up. Hope that helps!
